I'm an expert in working with students to develop skills and to understand concepts. My expertise is especially strong in problem solving, and applying concepts to real world situations.

I have accomplished my objective as a tutor only when the student no longer needs me to succeed in the are... Read more

- San Francisco , California ( 94112 )

I have had the privilege to tutor full time for the last 7 years in Los Angeles. I lean on patience and empathy as the cornerstones of an approach that I hand craft for every student I teach. I strongly value developing intuition, especially in more abstract areas of math and science. One of my primary directives is to share what my eyes see when I take in a concept or problem. This builds a broader problem solving toolset for my students that they can employ when approaching new material. M... Read more
